I love this too! Many people think I am obsessed honey, I just see it as total dedication, just like marathon runners, atheletes etc. They have to train and put the work in to achieve their goals and that is what i do, and that is what you do!

Seeing as you have said there is no choice, then as said above try and find a shared house option. You should go to the local council office and register there, it won't do much good in terms of housing but you will get some advice and be given some rented house info that will take a bond payment from your local council…

Lol! I'm drained with laughing he he he he

Yep I have, it's awesome! Makes you feel very sexy! Join a lesson group is my advice, very good for your flexibility and it's fun :) x

Best thing to do is make your own! Some of the ones you can buy are really high in sugar! There are some great recipes and I do protein merringues ha ha they're lush and all it is is egg white and canderel! :) Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods

This is just a guess but we do have a 2 week cycle sort of, with ovarian movement in the mix. I have trouble with this, I get mittel smurtz and am in agony most months while I ovulate and this stops me eating as much, and before ToM I am ravenous, it means you have a week or two, and then a week or two, not fair is it? May…

Honey you can eat anything in theory like others have said, but being a lover of food and eating lots lol I choose to go with healthy options. You can eat so so much more within your calorie allowance. You are more than welcome to check out my diary, but you'd have to be my friend lol! I eat 6 meals a day and eat every 3…

I'm definitely in!! Yay!!! :) Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods

Hello bless you I would say you're definitley not eating enough on the days you go under 1200. You're body needs fuel to burn, if you are active (as you say) then if you don't eat enough your body will hold onto it because it thinks it has to (check out aabout starvation mode). My guess is if you eat more you will lose…

Welcome!!! You are definitely in the right place babe! The people here are fab, so supportive and give loads of motivation! Add me as a friend if you like Good Luck!!! Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods

Hello, Yes and No lol! I only found out how to do this yesterday, go to "goals" change goals and customise your own. It's all in grams and mg. But it will only allow the %'s that they allow, if you see what I mean. I wanted to change mine, but it will not allow me to change it how I would like, however it does give better…

Oh no lol! Maybe you will learn to love it! Lol! When I started bodybuilding I thought cor this is hard work, and had to force myself to do it, but my Lord the results were so FAST and wonderful that began to truly love it!!! I find it much less stressful than hours of CV that got me nowhere. Good Luck with it! :) Created…

That's why everyone should be bodybuilders lol! ;) Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods

Absolutely do that! Strength training burns more calories and also goes on burning them for longer than any CV you can do. When you put it in your diary on here put it under cardio circuit training which will get you near on your cals lost, they don't think it's hard work on here lol! It is much much better to lift weights…

Totally agree with this!!!!

Just to explain BMI; years a go you would look up the weight you should be on a chart and you would choose whether you are small, medium or large framed and this would give you your ideal weight for height ratio. With BMI it is exactly the same, BMI gives you a range which is around over 2 stone difference. This takes into…

I'm aiming for 8 weeks lol! I've done it before so I know how but I am not convinced you can do it at home, however, nutrition is 80% of the result with abs especially so I would be interested in what you have found! Yipppeeeee 6 packs here we come! :) Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods

Thank you too :)

Brilliant! Thank you! :)

Sorry to hear that babe, I had this after my divorce, and we got year in year out in turns with Christmas day and Boxing day, until my kids made up their own minds. It was sooo weird and hard to begin with but then after a while I started to really really enjoy Christmas Day either on my own or with friends, and it…

I'm of the The Canaries for 8 days, Fuerteventura, then come back for one day and off to Torquay for the weekend for a Christmas party with work. Sooooo looking forward to it!! :) x

Wahoooo! How crazy only 3months! I'm going on holiday before that which means 2 months to my holiday whoop whoop!!! Got to do this for then!!! Can't wait!!!! :) x Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods

Great post! I have a question, is there a way of altering the macros on the food diary, the ammounts for protein, fat, carbs etc? I have looked but can't see if you can. :) Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods

Bless you! I think you need to give yourself a break first of all! And then maybe think about lifestyle change eating rather than dieting. I hate dieting I don't do it, something triggers in my brain that as soon as I say I am dieting I eat more crap. Several years ago I started eating healthily and it is a way of life, I…

Yes I too have would have trouble to eat back my exercise calories but I don't try. The things here is you really need to experiment with it. Everyone is different! Particularly for those over 38 years eating them all back may mean you don't lose weight or you put weight on. What works well for me and a lot of others is to…

Hello there, Great to hear you so motivated!! I would just like to add a few points to the answers above. Do you have stretch marks on you stomach area (I do) if you do the skin will find it harder to snap back into place and tbh this doesn't always happen anyway. The best way to avoid loose skin after dieting is to…

Me too lol! Guilty as charged! However I feel there are far worse things to be addicted too! ;) x

Spot on!! Just a word about personal trainers, in the US this is something that people do regularly but in the UK it isn't. They are out there but very expensive and out of most peoples budget. Personal trainers at the gym in the UK don't often give women the right bodybuilding programme. It took me years to find someone…

We're all different babe, most women do lose bust when dieting but some don't. The same as having babies most women lose bust after pregnancy and feeding, but some get bigger (I was one of those lol! ;)) :) xx
